Khadi industry likely to cross Rs 10k cr turnover in 5 yrs

The khadi industry in India is expected to cross Rs 10,000 crore turnover in the next five years, Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) Chairman Vinai Kumar Saxena said on Thursday



The target for this year is set at Rs 5,000 crore, he told IANS.

"In a time when the world is moving towards automation, khadi is one of the few handcrafted products. In the future, the only khadi will survive and nothing else," Saxena said at the Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive edition being held here.

The Day 3 of the week-long fashion event was dedicated to sustainable fashion where designers showcased their collection made out of sustainable fabrics. Three designers namely Anuj Bhutani, Pallavi Dhyani and Gaurav Khanijo collaborated with KVIC to create sustainable fashion wears that were showcased on the ramp.

Saxena said that the khadi industry has seen an average growth of 28 per cent in the last four years as compared to the growth rate of 6.18 per cent in 2004-2014.

"Cloth mills are producing 12,000 metres in a day but khadi which is handspun is produced only 12 metres. Despite that, from Rs 889 crore turnover in 2004-2014, we have reached Rs 3,215 crore turnover in just four years. There has also been a change in the production pattern. Till 2014, the total production of khadi was 103. 66 million square metres but in four years we have jumped 70 per cent," he told IANS.

To protect khadi which is a "heritage" of India, many designers have come on board and joined the movement, he said, which will make the industry thrive in future. Expanding the colour palette, westernizing the cuts, and creating new trends in itself, the Khadi fabric has transcended itself as a sustainable fabric of the Future, he said.

"Khadi has become a stylish narrative that is now popularly embraced by designers. A versatile fashion fabric, khadi has been used as a tool to navigate India through its hard-won independence.

For SRF, the chemicals business is keeping growth momentum steady

Shares of SRF Ltd surged 13% on Tuesday after the company impressed with a better-than-expected June quarter performance


Revenue growth, though, slowed to 9% year-on-year in the quarter, tracking the deceleration in its technical textiles business. But better profitability at its packing-films business saw operating profits rise to a decent 13%. Profit after tax was up 41%.

Revenues and operating profits at the technical textiles division dropped, reflecting the slowdown in the automobile industry. Operating profit at the chemicals division, which has been a growth driver, was flat due to a manufacturing plant closure.

However, the packing-films business saw a 50% jump in operating profit, which benefited from higher sales of value-added products. Both gross and operating profit margins expanded, driving net earnings.

Further, the outlook for two key business segments, packing films and technical textiles, is clouded by overcapacity and demand slowdown. Capacity additions in the packing-films business can disturb the demand-supply equilibrium in the short term, warned SRF. Prospects for technical textiles have been constrained by the economic slowdown and low demand from the automobile industry.

Still, overpowering these concerns are opportunities in the chemicals business. The fluorochemicals segment is seeing steady growth. The company developed a new refrigerant, which it plans to sell under its brand. It launched sales of branded Floron refrigerant products in South Africa in addition to Thailand and India, SRF said in a presentation to investors.

The outlook for speciality chemicals is encouraging. A slowdown in global agrochemicals notwithstanding, the company is seeing good demand for its flagship products. It launched two intermediaries in the agro segment and two molecules in the pharma segment. Similar to fluorochemicals, the focus here, too, is on market expansion through product launches.

Pharma is also seeing good growth. Changing weather patterns and resultant slowdown in some regions are headwinds for the agrochemicals business, though.

SRF and other Indian companies are benefiting from the ongoing diversification by global firms, which is resulting in slack in procurement from China. Indian companies, including SRF, are making timely investments to capture this demand. Chemical manufacturers, such as PI Industries Ltd, maintained its double-digit growth forecast for FY20 despite subdued demand trends in the domestic market.

Meanwhile, Tuesday’s gains in the SRF stock come on top of the 43% increase over the past year. The stock now trades at 19 times FY20 and 15 times FY21 earnings per share estimates. Still, this is not particularly inexpensive

M&M`s total domestic vehicle sales down 16% in July

Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) reported a decline of 16% year-on-year (YoY) in its total domestic wholesales to 37,434 units in July, as the economic downturn continues to hurt the auto industry




The company’s passenger vehicle wholesales fell 15% YoY to 16,831 units during the month, while commercial vehicle sales declined 17% to 15,969 units. The drop in wholesale numbers hint at more production cuts, which automakers have been undertaking to manage unsold inventory.

The company had reported a decline of 2% YoY and 9.4% YoY in passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles, respectively, in the first quarter of the current fiscal, according to data released by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM).

For M&M, the bigger decline in CV sales came from subdued sales in the light commercial vehicle (LCV) category, where the Bolero range of light trucks-- under 3.5 ton--dominates. It reported total domestic sales of LCVs, below 3.5 tons, at 14,874 units in July, down 16% YoY.

The fall in demand for LCVs is a clear indication that small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have also been hit.

The medium and heavy commercial vehicle (M&HCV) category, which primarily reflects the economic health of sectors such as transportation and infrastructure, has reported a drop of 52% from 866 units sold in July last year to 417 units last month.

Ceat shares dip 2% after Nomura cuts target by 17% on slower growth

Nomura expects 11 percent truck and bus radial (TBR) tyres growth and 5-6 percent growth in passenger/2-wheelers tyres in FY20.


Ceat shares fell 2.5 percent intraday on July 2 after Japanese brokerage house Nomura maintained 'reduce' call on the stock and cut target price by 16.6 percent on slower growth.
"We cut price target to Rs 817 from Rs 980 per share earlier," the brokerage said, adding the expansion in competitive and capital intensive segments will impact return on capital employed and weak original equipment demand will impact the industry in the near term.
Nomura expects 11 percent truck and bus radial (TBR) tyres growth and 5-6 percent growth in passenger/2-wheelers tyres in FY20.
"We do not see impact from additional duties of 9-17 percent on TBR imports from China," said the brokerage that expects Ceat to deliver 9/10 percent volume growth in FY20/21.
"We see rising margin headwinds from the adverse product mix and hence cut margin estimates by 30/60 bps to 9.1 /9.2 percent for FY20/21," Nomura said.
The stock plunged 28 percent in last one year. It was quoting at Rs 905.50, down Rs 21.40, or 2.31 percent on the BSE at 1056 hours IST.

'Sensex may hit 50K in third year of Modi 2.0; top 6 ideas for your portfolio'



Considering the slowdown in many sectors and keeping in mind the liquidity crisis in the NBFC space, it is imperative for RBI to take more monetary steps.



Over the longer term, Sensex has the potential to reach 50,000 anywhere in the third year of Modi's second tenure, said Rusmik Oza, Head of Fundamentals, Kotak Securities in an interview to Moneycontrol's Sunil Shankar Matkar.
Edited excerpts:
Q: Considering the volatility in the market, what is your advice to investors and traders? 
A: Nifty will remain volatile from here till budget. If Nifty goes to 12,000, it will be trading around 19x Fw PE, which is closer to its previous peak in terms of valuations.
It is ideal to buy July Nifty Puts to hedge the portfolio or protect any potential downside if the Budget disappoints. We are slightly concerned about the upcoming earnings season that could disappoint and lead to lowering of full-year estimates.
Over the longer term, Sensex has the potential to reach 50,000 anywhere in the third year of Modi's second tenure.
Q: NBFCs have been struggling for several months now. What would be better - holding the stocks if you own any, staying away or switching to banks?
A: We are positive only on the larger NBFCs, which have strong parentage. Most of the smaller NBFCs having higher exposure to builder financing could face difficult times in future. Funding for most NBFCs is still a challenge that will lead to slower business and a hit on margins.
It is wise to stay invested only in larger NBFCs with stronger parentage and good technology backbone. We would strongly recommend moving out from richly valued NBFCs and smaller NBFCs to corporate banks (as recoveries could lead to a big spike in profitability).
Q: What are your top six ideas for someone who wants to build a portfolio? 
A: We like SBI and ICICI Bank as profits could rise in multiples rather in percentage in the next two years. This will lead to return on equity moving to or beyond 15 percent, which will lead to re-rating in their valuations.
We like L&T as it is one of the few companies that have the capability to take and execute large ticket size orders. L&T trades at reasonable valuations of 21x on forwarding PE.
In the NBFC space, we like M&M Financial as we expect earnings to grow at a CAGR of around 18 percent in the next two years. It trades around 2.1x on FY20E Book Value.
In the mid-cap space, we recommend NCC in the construction space because of a strong order book and reasonable valuations.
Himatsingka Seide is another midcap we like as it trades cheap at 8x forward PE with 15 percent return on equity profile.
Sectors to avoid are cement, consumer staples, smaller NBFCs, technology, oil & gas and metals.
Q: From a policy standpoint, is more rate cuts only way to address the slowdown in consumption and economy?
a: We feel RBI has more room to provide monetary stimulus by way of further rates cuts. Considering the slowdown being witnessed in many sectors and keeping in mind the liquidity crisis in the NBFC space, it is imperative for RBI to take more monetary steps.
We see less room for fiscal stimulus as government spending is already on the higher side and managing Fiscal Deficit is also important.
